what is this terrible affliction of man..
he is the most discontent of creatures
yet he is gifted with the most extraordinary of powers
he has the mind of god
yet he cannot find peace
he spends his days in judgement of others
or himself
he tears the very fabric of his world to pieces
to feather his own nest
while all around him suffer
he does not know himself
yet he presumes to know others
he claimed the throne
yet he cannot even rule himself

i am at a loss
and i am done with some false hope
that man can save himself
from his greatest enemy.
himself.
